The expression for the change in profit of each owner is the ratio of the total loss to the number of owners since the loss is shared equally, hence, the expression is -780 / 6

Given that :

Total loss = $780 ; since we are dealing with loss and not profit, we represent the amount lost as negative

Hence,

Total loss = -$780

Number of owners = 6

Change in profit of each owner = -$780 / 6

Therefore, the change in profit of each owner is -$780/6
